Chongzhen Undergraduates

Just as Huang Degong was about to pick it up, Lu Jiude snatched it away, and Ma Shiying's hand stopped in midair.

Among the three, Huang Degong held the military power and had real power in his hands, but the civilian officials in Ming Dynasty were greater than the military officials, and Ma Shiying belonged to the eunuchs, and Lu Jiude was a serious eunuch.

"What did the emperor say in the letter?" Ma Shiying anxiously waited for Lu Jiude to read the letter, but did not intend to take it.

"Long Live God said: Every plant and tree in Huai'an City belongs to him."

"It's gone?" Huang Degong was taken aback. What does this mean?

"No more. General Huang, hurry up and order the soldiers entering the city not to loot and kill, and pay attention to military discipline. Lord Long Live should have come to Huai'an City in advance."

"Didn't you agree that there will be military pay for conquering Huai'an?" Huang Degong was a little frustrated, and the army was dispatched. Who would come if there is no advantage?

"That was before Long Live Lord entered Huai'an City." Lu Jiude choked out angrily, "Do you want to be the next Liu Zeqing?"

"Let's clean up Huai'an City quickly and block Liu Zeqing. What if something happens to Lord Long Live if we go late?" What Ma Shiying meant was that everyone rush to rescue him, this is a good opportunity to catch up.

Chapter 77: Battle of Muyang

When Liu Zeqing brought Zhu Youjian to Muyangdong, the news of Suqian's siege had already spread.

And this time the news is more accurate, it is Xuzhou's Gao Jie Department.At this moment, Liu Zeqing fully understood that this was a joint military operation by several towns against him.

Gao Jie's troops are the strongest, Liu Zeqing knows this well, and Gao Jie also has Xuzhou as the rear.

There are two choices before Liu Zeqing: to fight Haizhou or to fight Suqian.No need to think about the situation now, Liu Zeqing already knew that Haizhou was besieged by the Luzhong army.

Returning to Huai'an is already impossible, not to mention that after going back, the beast will still fight, losing Haizhou and Suqian, several major soldiers will directly press down on Huai'an, and he will end up in defeat in the end.

"Marshal, for the current plan, we can only break through Haizhou, and then go north to have a chance." Liu Zefeng did not expect such a situation.

"With our [-] soldiers against the recruits from Central Lu, we have a better chance of winning." Liu Zhiqian interjected.

Actually, this is no longer the answer, how could Liu Zeqing not know?What he was thinking was why several towns would suddenly join forces to deal with him, which was a bit unreasonable.

The reason why the four towns in Jiangbei were able to join forces to promote Fu Wang to supervise the country was nothing more than that everyone had the same interests. Now that the situation has been reversed, it can only mean that there is a greater interest or that an individual has set up a bureau among them, and this bureau is only aimed at themselves.

Those who can be warlords must have this political awareness. Liu Ze immediately thought of Zhu Youjian, the emperor who was said to be alive but had never appeared in public.

At the beginning, after the matter of King Fu's supervision of the country was messed up, everyone's attention was focused on the prince, so why did they ignore Zhu Youjian?

The more he thought about this, the more Liu Zeqing pinned his hopes on the so-called distinguished guests. If the emperor really did something to him, going north might be the only way out.

"I decided not to go to Haizhou. Go straight north and break through the siege." Liu Zeqing decided to abandon Haizhou and go north to escape for his life. This move of abandoning the car to protect the commander was a last resort.

From Muyang to the north, a map of Pingchuan, as long as it passes Donghaiwei smoothly, it will directly reach the border of Shandong, and then Liu Zeqing is confident that he can escape and ascend to heaven.

Unfortunately, Li Yan never gave him this chance.

Li Yan's army has been waiting for Liu Zeqing in Donghaiwei for three days, a total of 9 people.Outside the city of Haizhou, Li Yan only placed [-] soldiers for the purpose of seeing Haizhou.He even hoped that Zheng Longfang of Haizhou would abandon the city, so that he would occupy Haizhou City without a single soldier.

Some people will say, what if Hou Jin goes south to unite with Liu Zeqing?Just like a piece of stone.

In fact, history gave Nanming a chance, and it took half a year.According to the original historical trajectory, from May to February of the following year, Nanming had enough time to come to the entire four towns in Jiangbei. However, the court of Nanming spent its time on internal friction.

Even if there is time to do it all, no force can do it.First of all, the four towns in Jiangbei are basically evenly matched, each with their own ghosts, and they don't trust each other.Second, the Nanming Hongguang Dynasty relied on the four towns of Jiangbei to be superior, and it is impossible to have the strength to integrate the four towns of Jiangbei.

History gave Zhu Youjian an opportunity to get an advantage in Luzhong. With the help of Li Yan's [-] team, he pulled up a team that was out of balance. Only then did he have the strength to break the balance and integrate other warlords.

As a future person, the current Zhu Youjian certainly knows that Huang Degong's department is an eunuch, which is equivalent to the power of the imperial party.Gao Jie's department is devoted to the imperial court, and Li Zicheng is a sworn enemy, while the other two, belonging to Liu Zeqing, are the most helpless and betrayed their relatives.

Play two against one, this plan is the safest, and eating Liu Zeqing is also the most attractive to attract the appetite of the other two towns.In addition, Liu Zeqing offended Zhu Youjian before, so cleaning up Liu Zeqing first will not make others feel sad.

Half a day later, Liu Zeqing's striker had already confronted Li Yan's troops.

Liu Zeqing looked dignified, standing alone in front of the formation and looking at Lu Zhongjun opposite, wondering what he was thinking.Zhu Youjian received preferential treatment and was brought to Liu Zeqing's side.

"Guest, tell me, if I defeat the opponent, will I be able to reach the capital smoothly?" Liu Zeqing hoped that someone could encourage him at this moment.

"Commander, that's for sure. There is only this enemy in the north of you. As long as you break through, the sea and the sky will be brighter."

Zhu Youjian was a little worried. Whether the soldiers trained by Luzhong could withstand Liu Zeqing's attack still depended on the final result.

"Just look at it!" Liu Zeqing was full of confidence. The 5 people behind him were the best elite he could handle, while the opposite was a group of recruits. He was good at picking up cheap things.

"Attack." The Huai'an army moved, and Zhu Youjian looked around. There were [-] infantrymen in the vanguard, wearing the neatest armor, and began to attack.

The drums were beating, the horns were rushing, and the shouts were loud.The Huai'an army has no cavalry, and no source of war horses. This battle is of course an infantry battle.

However, Li Yan's department on the opposite side remained motionless, and occasionally a different trumpet sound could be heard.

Liu Zeqing had never heard of this kind of bugle, and frowned.I have been fighting wars for decades, and I have never heard such a trumpet sound.

When the Huai'an army walked a hundred steps away, they didn't even shoot an arrow from the opposite side.Liu Zeqing smiled at this moment, and even had a feeling of winning.

He was sure that as long as the armored infantry on his side rushed forward, the recruits on the opposite side would be defeated immediately.The courage of the recruits is always high, but once frustrated, the rout is also the fastest.

50 meters, the opposite side still did not move.Liu Zeqing observed with a simple binoculars, and found that some soldiers in the Luzhong Army standing in the first row were obviously frightened, and their calves were trembling.

Deng Zhirong's regiment stood in the front row. Although Deng Zhirong himself had combat experience, most of his subordinates were recruits.

Li Yan's arrangement was very simple. All those with poor stabbing skills stood at the front with their badges on their shoulders, and in the gaps between the badges were all soldiers with the best stabbing skills from each company.

When the two armies were 40 meters apart, the shields of the Lu Zhongjun still hadn't been erected.

Li Yan was betting that the Huainan Army's archers would not be used in the first wave.Liu Zeqing was also betting that the recruits of the Luzhong Army would not be able to withstand the first wave of his own infantry.

If the Huainan Army's first wave of shock worked, the archers would immediately tear open a hole, and the opponent's defense would collapse.

Conversely, if the first wave of long-range attacks is used according to the conventional method, although it can kill the enemy, it will also prompt the opponent to strengthen the defense of the battle formation, and the battle will become a stalemate.

Liu Zeqing didn't have the time and patience to fight slowly with Lu Zhongjun. What he wanted was not to destroy the enemy, but to tear open a hole quickly so that he could escape.

What pleased Liu Zeqing the most was that the opponent didn't have long-range weapons, and his striker rushed forward without any casualties. From the current point of view, the situation is most favorable for the Huai'an army.

At 30 meters, the trumpets of the Luzhong Army sounded, and the shields placed upside down in front of the formation immediately stood up. At this time, the Huai'an Army discovered that the opponent's shield seemed to be higher than ordinary shields, almost as high as the shoulders.

The entire shield formation instantly formed a wall, and behind the shields were soldiers in armor, carrying the shields with all their might.

Liu Zeqing looked at it and thought: It's broken, this is a fucking tough battle.I don't have heavy weapons on my side, so how many people have to be filled in to smash this turtle shell.

"Let all the servants attack." Liu Zeqing gritted his teeth, it was a big gamble.

Family servants are Liu Zeqing's biggest housekeeping capital. They are usually supported by good wine, good meat and good women. They are composed of capable people and strangers in the world. They are also Liu Zeqing's last hope.

Through the shield gap, Deng Zhirong saw a large group of people with bare shoulders, tattooed bodies and strange weapons rushing towards him, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Brother, how do these people fight?" Li Nian asked Li Yan while riding on the horse.
